I am accustomed to sleep and in my dreams to imagine the same things that lunatics imagine when awake.

I am so excited to let fans in on how important my relationship with my family is to me. I hope to motivate mothers and daughters to build lifetimes of memories together and inspire kids around the world to live their dreams.
